- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.4.21.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

After beating my head against the desk for the past hour, I decided to remove this plugin. I followed all the suggestions from the developer in the forum as a couple of people had the same issue. Re-created the Twitch App, verified usernames, read through a few other sites, and it’s still nothing but a grey box. It’s a shame. Would have been a great addition.

Near perfection, but there is an issue. Two annoying white patches on the sides of the windows. You may not remove? These are two lines (short but thick), next to the video and next to the chat window. Sin.

This widget/plugin does not work. Install/usage instructions are lacking and incomplete and there is no support for this product.
